Addressing
Instruments with
SICL
SICL addresses include the IP address or hostname of your E5810 as well
as the SICL address of the device on the E5810, and optionally the protocol
to be used. Some example addresses for SICL programs follow. These
examples assume that the SICL interface ID of your TCPIP interface is “lan”.
(You can specify this interface ID with the Connection Expert utility; “lan” is
the default SICL ID for the default TCPIP0 interface.)
lan[my_IP_Address]:gpib0,22
lan;vxi-11[my_IP_Address]:gpib0,22
lan[my_IP_Address]:COM1,488
lan;sicl-lan[my_IP_Address]:gpib0,11
NOTE
At the time of this writing, National Instruments I/O software does not
support the SICL-LAN protocol, but only the VXI-11 protocol. Because
RS-232 instruments are only supported by SICL-LAN and not VXI-11, you
cannot use National Instruments I/O software to program an RS-232
instrument on your E5810.
